I remember seeing guys walking around the park with serious road rash after they bailed on the alpine slide with no shirt on. How about how cold the spring fed water was on the tarzan swing? I can recall the lifeguards pulling several people out of the water because they almost went into shock when they hit the water. Then there was the death and destruction I saw at Vernon Valley Great Gorge.......memories

New R-1 progressing nicely. Great job by Twin Lights making our ideas a reality.

There is absolutely no concern amongst the guys from Stamford over this. The guys in Stamford have bigger issues to deal with at the present time.

Whoa! As the Captain refered to in this post, let me clarify. When Belltown went fully volunteer an order was sent to me by Chief Didelot altering their outgoing mutual aid policy to include structural fires, and smoke conditions. I altered the CAD to honor these changes. Belltown was always available to respond upon request. Regarding Glenbrook, 348's statement is accurate, I recieved that order from Chief Passaro during my tenure at 911.
